Riding For A Fall

• D

D              A          Bm              A     
Last night you told her,  you could never hold her  
      G                      A  
Cause cowboys just got to be free  
D             A           Bm         A   
Her heart was breaking,   yours was aching  
        G             A           D  
but you saddled up to follow your dreams  
D              A          Bm               A         
Coffee on your campfire,  wind through the barbed wire  
G                       A  
You huddle close to the flames  
D                  A              Bm           A  
Though she's far behind you,  the night wind reminds you  
        G         A             D   
It just keeps on whispering her name  
 
A              G           D  
You can make a run for the border  
A                  G           D  
Try to hide in the hole in the wall  
Bm                               A  
But don't you know your arms are aching to hold her  
    G                                A        
and cowboy even though you're riding tall   
                    D  
You're riding for a fall  
  
verse 2:  
  
Midnight the moons up,  hands around your tin cup  
The frost settles in on the sage  
The night gettin' colder,  well man you're gettin' older  
Tonight you're feeling your age  
  
verse 3  
Why don't you turn back,  just saddle up and backtrack  
You know you'll never find a love quite like hers  
and tell me  On a cold lonesome evening,    
What the hell good's your freedom  
Don't you think it's time you hung up your spurs  
  
REPEAT CHORUS
